PICTURE OF THE DAY 2

TWO MORE REASONS FOR A PLAYOFF: USC AND PENN STATE. C.J. Gable #2 of the USC Trojans runs in for the touchdown past Drew Astorino #28 of the Penn State Nittany Lions during the 95th Rose Bowl Game presented by Citi on January 1, 2009 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.

Surely both belong in a playoff and the Trojans maybe as good, or better, than either Florida or Oklahoma. Sadly, we will never know.
